revolution of the Earth around the sun

What causes differences in air pressure?

the unequal heating of Earth's atmosphere

What happens during a land breeze?

wind moves because air above land is cooler that air above water

wind flows primarily during the day

wind blows from poles toward the equator

wind is created the same way as during a sea breeze
